Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Hello,
I got a big probblem here.
Can anyone help me ?
I installed a fresh RH 8.0 linux on a Intel Celleron 333MHz with 128MB Ram
and it runned smoothely until i made "up2date" from redhat and stoped X .
when i tryed to restart X it didn't. i made X -probeonly >& startx.out
and checked the /var/log/XFree86.0.log but there are no errors.
X initialises and i can see the mouse pointer for a short time then it just gets out of X.
Anyone has any ideea ?
